That sees a little harsh.........

 

My " research" may have been a bit on the skimpy side admittedly.

No harshness intended min 

I believe we’re in for the following:

Liam Lindsay

Stephen O’Donnoll

Matt Kennedy 

Likely to get our semi annual knockback from McGeough as well

Theres a Dundee supporter on Twitter saying you're in for Dorrans, too.

I'd be happy enough with O'Donnell and Kennedy but what we desperately need is a replacement for Christie. We have absolutely no ball retention ability in the opposition half. I'm pretty sure Kennedy is exclusively a winger, so would seem a bit of a redundant signing even though he may well be an improvement in the squad. Wingers are no use if you can't get the ball to them. I can't think of any realistic signings in the no. 10 role in Scotland who would be good enough though.

Edit: Possibly Kyle Magennis?

Not sure I understand the Lindsay rumour. He'd be an improvement alongside McKenna, but there's no way we could afford him unless he comes as a makeweight in a deal for McKenna. In that case he'd likely be a loan, which is pointless. We'd be better off waiting until the summer if we're going to sell McKenna and make a play for Findlay as a replacement. Unless of course Cormack wants to show real ambition and go and get Lindsay to play alongside McKenna!

Mostly left wing, but hes scored from the right wing. Last season we had a spell of him playing centrally just off Watt and he caused chaos there. Hes also played as a lone striker for us, against Rangers, and got a goal and was MOM.

On that basis, if we are interested in him, McInnes will probably play him at left back.

We already have 3 out and out wingers in McGinn, Hedges and McLennan who spend most of their Aberdeen careers as perma-substitutes. 

All we need is another one squeezing in on the bench.

Theres zero chance we'd let Kennedy go for £20k in January, even if he signed elsewhere. Hes our best winger and the difference in position is worth £100k+, while relegation could cost over a million, we wont harm our own chances for a nominal fee.

FWIW you've not actually approached him, simply told his agent to keep you in the loop about what's happening. 

I didn't literally mean £20k RG.

It was more a case of agreeing a pre contract and then offering a fee to get him in now.

Doubt £20k would swing it tbh.
